Love these shoes, however the shoe laces are falling apart. The tip of one fell off when i was lacing them making it very difficult to do the task.

The back of these kind of dig into my heel and would probably cause blisters if I wore them for a long time. The sole doesn't really have any support (I have high arches) which wouldn't be a big problem if I could take them out and replace them with a better insert, but they appear to be glued in?? They look cute, but are more of a "go to the brewery" shoe than a "walk around a city in Portugal" shoe.

This shoe looks good but runs a size large. Size down. Will have to return for a different size.

Received these overall good, but one shoe has a light stain on the canvas. Also disappointed with the lack of cushion in these. I really wish they made a pair of Skate Old Skools in all white with the popcush insole, that would be so much more comfortable!

I thought they were all leather but it's a mix of fabric and leather

I always buy vans classics size 9 but with this ones was different because I ordered size 9 and those are bigger than the classic ones. It doesn't fits me.

I love vans, I usually buy them in store but this time I orden them online, I know my size and everything so I knew they would fit perfect. Now the day that my package was supposed to be delivered I never got it, the next day I try contacting the mail service but they said it was delivered at my house, I had to look for it all around till I found it at one of my neighbors house. Never ordering online again, I will just go directly to the store!

These shoes are narrower and smaller than other Vans shoes. You may have to order the wide fit or half a size up. I wear a men's 8 and I had to reorder the 8.5 for this pair. I had to wear these in a bit longer than other Vans as well. They look great though.

I got these at the Vans store in SLO. The rep said they should fit true to size but I didn't have socks so wasn't able to accurately tell. I got my normal size but they are at least a half size too big, resulting in me flopping around! Super bummed as I was stoked for my first pair of Vans. Size half a size down then your normal size!!

Apparently I wear a 12 1/2 size. The 12 is too small and my feet flop around in the 13s.
If Vans ever make a 12 1/2 I'll buy a hundred pairs. But until then I just can't wear these.

I guess you don't get this model for the comfort. Hardly any cushioning but it's a nice casual styled shoe.

I love the look of the shoes. There is zero support or cushion but that really doesn't bother me. I own several other vans. The reason I will have to return these shoes is that the back is so low and it rubs the back of my ankle raw with every step. I tried wearing bandaids, which Id prefer not to do, but even that didn't help. These shoes were so painful by the end of the day with just minimal amount of walking. Wish I could wear them because they look great, but they're PAINFUL.

Adorable color combo!! I've been looking all over for navy and these would have been SO fun to wear! But, fit slightly short and ZERO support. I'm worried they would not be comfortable on my feet all day, especially after reading the reviews. Thankfully the returns are free at Zappos!

I've been buying the authentics for years, but this time I wanted to try something different so I thought I'd try these. I wish I could still return them, honestly. First off they seem to run even smaller than the authentics that I'm use to, I definitely could have sized up. They're also full of manufacturing flaws that I've had to touch up. On the inside, by the tongue and laces were 2 bright white stripes despite the fact that they're suppose to be mono toned black shoes, so I hit both shoes with a sharpie, but then when I put them on I realized that the stitching on *one* of the tongues was bright white, just on one shoe though. They're uncomfortable and rub on the back of my heel as well. I'm hoping they stretch/break in soon. Not the quality I expected at all. I guess I'll stick to the authentics next time or look somewhere else entirely.

They were not canvas material so I was disappointed. Could’ve gotten the suede ones cheaper.

These are cute shoes. I always liked the looks of Vans. But these have a horrible fit. They are extremely uncomfortable, they have no arch support, they are rigid at my big toe. They are extremely uncomfortable and I have to return them. This breaks my heart because they are super cute but they just are not the right shoe from me.

I bought the red pair for my son. We sprayed the protector on them and he took great care of them. Unfortunately, the red fades. Not even a full year. Nice beautiful and vibrant but it's a disappointment.
